Highlighting the Importance of Health and Wellness Activities

In this fast-paced world, there are people paying little attention to their wellbeing, with their hectic work schedules, and other social activities.

Stress and sleep deprivation has become a common household and workplace term to such an extent that people think that having such burden is just a normal occurrence of life.

Research such as one published by the Miami Herald shows, however, that chronic stress greatly contributes to increased risks of heart disease, cancer, lung illnesses, liver cirrhosis, accidents, and suicide. These are the six leading causes of death in the world.

An effective way to maintain stress at healthy levels is to partake in health and wellness activities.

Pilates, on the other hand, develops a strong core, boosts flexibility, and creates an evenly conditioned body according to Fitness Magazine. This activity is increasing in popularity among women, due to its gentle and low impact movements.

Aerial activities like aerial silks are also becoming trendy, given the added fun and excitement they offer participants. The Spinsterz lists its advantages such as body coordination, better mood, and enhanced concentration.

All of these and other fitness activities help relieve stress and promote wellbeing, whether it’s physical, mental, or emotional. There’s also no need to hold off from getting started on improving your health and wellness. What’s necessary is only the willingness to take the first step and determination to stay on the path to a better you.

To have a better understanding of why it’s important to improve your overall wellbeing now, take for example a six-sided die. Assume that 5 sides are good, and 1 is bad. Rolling one dicee will have a 5 out of 6 chance to get a good side as shown in this Pocket Fruity insight on probabilities. However, if each roll corresponds to each year you pay little attention to your health, even that 1 bad side can turn up next year, or the next, and so on.

FEEL BETTER, FASTER

At Whole Life Balance, we believe in real human connection. Our heart-centered operation is a one-stop-shop for holistic wellness, offering state-of-the-art wellness and training so that you can save time and feel your best.

I received Chiropractic treatment from Carmel and she was amazing. She assessed me and developed a plan based on my body's needs. She suggested a series of diverse methods based on my comfort level and what she thought was the most effective treatment. Then she started getting to work and I felt relief immediately! I 100% recommend Carmel.

I stumbled upon Whole Life Balance one Saturday when I was urgently looking to get a massage treatment for my neck pain. I normally visit a sports rehab clinic that is out of the way and closed on weekends. Lucky for me, I ended up finding specialists who are better than the rehab clinic I had been going to for months, and to top it off, the service/experience is exceptional. They really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and taken care of. During my first visit I received a massage from Katie, and it was wonderful. I was then recommended to the chiropractor because my issue was a little deeper. When I first met with the chiro, Dr. Carmel Bachar, I was apprehensive because of past experiences. However, right away, Carmel was very diligent and thorough with her discovery questions so she could apply the appropriate course of treatment. I have never experienced this type of care in my life and it has been very refreshing. I've been seeing her now for a short 1.5 weeks and my neck pain is virtually gone. Just one more treatment and I should be good to go. HIGHLY recommend!!

I suffer from chronic neck and back pain so there is not a day that goes by where I am not hurting. I was in an unbearable amount of pain one morning and Whole Life Balance moved things around to accommodate a last minute massage appointment. So glad that they did because, this is when I met Katie.
Katie turned out to be by far one of the best RMTs I have ever received treatment from. She's got great energy and I love how she incorporates essential oils and cupping as part of the experience. BTW, the cupping technique itself is amazing! Again, being someone that has a lot of back pain, I've received a lot of massages. But the cupping has taken my pain relief to another level. Thanks to Katie, cupping will forever be part of my life.
If you have back pain - go see Katie !

This place is awesome! The atmosphere and staff (especially Sandra–who gave me one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had) are great. I'd recommend Whole Life Balance for that reason alone. But the IV drip was even better! I showed up on a Friday night after a very long week and got the Stamina Drip. When I left, I felt like a Saturday morning and a million bucks. It brought me back to life when I was exhausted. Will definitely go again.

I'm a relatively active and healthy and have never experienced upper back/neck pain, until recently. Being active, I’ve had an assortment of other injuries but this one worried me as I couldn’t sit or stand without pain – and in certain positions/movements, extreme pain. I had never seen a chiropractor before as I’m apprehensive with adjustments, but had heard positive things about Dr. Bachar at Whole Life Balance, so booked an appointment. Dr. Bachar was thorough in her assessment and great at providing options around a treatment approach – including acupuncture and deep muscle release, as she knew I was uneasy with adjustments. The results? Complete success! Felt great immediately after and even better the following days. I decided to play it safe and not work out for a week, although I didn’t feel any further pain. One week later I began my regular workouts and no sign of pain at all - well, at least not back pain! =) Thank you Dr. Bachar!

Dr. Carmel Bachar is the real deal, I am a very active person, training 5-6 time a week, softball, hip hop etc. I definitely have my share of sport injuries. I have had bad experiences with previous chiropractors and needing many sessions before seeing results- or no result at all.
On my first appointment i soon realized that I was in good hands
(no punt intended) I felt 70% better right after the initial session.
The second time i came for a different issue and she used all her knowledge and experience to help the pain and discomfort in my shoulder. I was able to play my softball game the next day. in my most recent visit i was unable to reach my shoulder due of elbow injury involving my triceps, In less than 30 minutes of chiropractic treatment and acupuncture I was able to reach over my shoulder without pain.
I believe that Dr. Carmel Bachar's knowledge and professional experience can help you as much as she has been helping me in the past few months. She seem to always find the right treatment for all different scenario its like magic...make your pain go away...
Thank you Dr. Carmel Bachar for being so passionate and care so much about your patients well being...
